Chapter 2: Installation 

 
A printed Quick-Start Guide (QSG) is packed with the card for your convenience.  If you’ve already performed the 
steps from the QSG, you may find this chapter to be redundant and may skip forward to begin developing your 
application.   
 
The software provided with this card is on CD and must be installed onto your hard disk prior to use. To do this, 
perform the following steps as appropriate for your operating system.
